DlEFERENCB OFOPINION.

If the Advance lives lorg enough it
will yet learn that wOrkingmen are not
among the anarchist sympathizers. For
shame on the Advance to class honest
laboring men with the lawless gang Of
cuL.thrOats and murderers known as
narchists.-Heron Lake News!
The whole matter with the ADVANCE
turns upon the hanging. We have de.
clared over and over that we have no
sympathy with bomb throwers and
that the anarchist is out Of place in
America. And we have also declared
over and over that the condemned sew
en- ought not to be hanged. Parsons
and Spies were hanged for free speech,
for the use of violent and diniammatory
language. Thousands of editors
might be hanged for the same offence.
Fer shame on the News, and its class
of editors, to join in the hue and cry
against brother editors aDd teach the
public mind that men should be
hanged for what they say.

On. of in. Cruel Events.

Thomas ". Knox. of the New York Herald, did not accompany the movements against Forts Henry and Donclsou He ac- companicd Gen. Curtis in his chase after Price from Springfield, Mo. into Arkansas. where in due season, after much marching, skirmisLing. coUntcrmarching, maneuver- ing, advancing and retrcating. there oc- cured the bloody, long contested and de- cisive battle of Pea Ridge. There were but two correspondents with the Federal army - Knox and Fayal, of The St Louis Democrat. These two followed the Federal columns for several weeks; they underwent extraordinary hardships, they witnessed the final battle and then started for St Louis. writing their let ters as they travelled. They had to travel on horseback for a distance of nearly or qu.sc 200 miles bcfore reaching the railway at BOlla The two correspondents, kEsving that they were ,hc only newspaper repre~en- tatives in the field, were reasonably happy. Being from widely separated towns, there was no rivalry between them, and they strengthened each others letters by a free interchange of facts. so that their accounts were probably as near perfect as product of the kind could bc.
 Filled with satisfaction SI the certainty of having the only accounts and of being the first to give the record of the march and bat ties to the public, they reached St. Louis. and found a New York Tribune that had ar rived the same morning and which contained a full page account of the battle of Pea Ridge, Fancy the situation of these two men who had travelled hundreds of miles. had suffered all possible har,lships, had witnessed the battle, and who knew that no other cor respondent hal been on the ground, l; Was the most cruel event of the war, so far as it related Co the experiences Of the correspoud- ents-' POlintO" in Chicago Times

Complications of Cincinnati Women.

Cincinnati women have perfect complex ions. In accounting for the unusual fair ness a clUbman there said: 1t may be that our proximity Co Kentucky has something Co do with the matter. You see, CoyinSt0n k only across the river. and we are able to i'm port handsome women without any trouble But Ohio is not indebted Co Kentucky alone for the beauty of her women. She is the oldest of what were once termed the new western states Some of the best and Dluest of New England blood came here in early days. This has been improved from year to year until you sec the result before you.'
 It k certainly wonderful how Cincinnati women can keep or preserve such clear and brilliant compilations in such a city The rolling mills and factories SD fu the air with black smoke that even the sun is obscured Nc sOOt from the soft coal smoke finds its way into the houses through every open win dow and door. The waiter at your hotel covers up the mouth of your bottle in order Co Ee1p out this all prevailing soot.

A DastardIy Attempt 10 A.ssssinate Inc
 Deputy Sheriff at NoEaIes.
 MORALES, March 18th.
 Nothing had occurred here 10 mar the peace and quiet of this orderly little burg, since the 3i inst, until about the 18th, Deputy Sheriff Speedy was stand ing in front of the postoftice m Nogales. ArIz, a few feet from the dividing line when he was accosted by a custom house official from the Mexican side ID very friendly manner, Inviting the deputy sheriff to take drink with hIm, which Mir. Speedy very politely declined. Then the official asked him to take H cigar, sI the same time saying that he was a friend of the sheriff and that he had a great many friends in Mexico ID the way that the sheriff had conducted himself in the late trouble of the 31 inst After receiving so much tBtTy Mr. Speedy con cluded that be would step acrOss the street, n distance of about thirty feet, 10 take cigar that was so courteously offered. No sooner had be entered when he was confronted by three other custom house guards. and found there with them Mir. Littlepage. As soon Rs the deputy stepped In the four officers got in between the American officers and the door. At that moment one of teem asked the sheriff If one Frank Burke was hIs son-in-law, and the deputy answered ID the affirmative. He then said, If Burke Is your un-In-law, you and hIm can -, and made use ot yery foul epithet and wound up by saying that ne, Speedy, was "valRlnte" on the AmeI- can side, and drew his pistol; Q; tine same tme the one that was so suxIOus For the deputy 10 take cIgar, Immeii- Btely drew hIs gun md the other t@o dld likewise. The deputy, quICk US thought, jumped between two of the assassins and out of the door on AmerI- can soil. Immediately after the occur renee, Gov. Torres sent to find out from Mir. Speedy all about the affair, and was told. He. the Governor, had the men confined about two hours and then turned him loose. That night, about S or 2 o'clock, the same offIci al ] got gang to follow him around. evil deBtly hunting for the deputy, all arm ed with one or two pistols. While the L. S. troops were at NogBles the MexI- cans were as meek as lRmDs; AS soon ss they were removed they commenced showing tbeIr hands and defyIng the peace officers of the American side, and 1 threatening to kill and murder them at the first opportunity, winch they came very near carrying out ou the 10th. If the |. 5. government does not do any thing in the matter, 1t IS likely there will be hlOOlshel there at any moment as the peace officers are helpless to en- force the laws, Our poverty stricken neighbors, who principally subsist on cigarette smoking. .hRye a standing army, and what for? Oar great and glorious government cannot send anything there for the protection of the lives and prop erty of American citizens. Some day. when II Is least expected, blood will flow down the streets of Nogaies. All It needs IS for a peace officer to kill one of those brave men m the discharge of his duty, to start the ball a rolling.
